Texas Senator Cruz still talking after 16 hours

Republican Senator Ted Cruz of Texas remained standing and speaking in the Senate on Wednesday, more than 16 hours after he began with what he promised would be a marathon attack to try and prevent funding of President Barack Obama's healthcare program. While many Republicans are in agreement that Obamacare is a disaster, top leaders are expected to line up and support an emergency spending bill to keep the government from shutting down. Cruz could see his marathon speech end owing to a procedural vote on a funding resolution that will take place on the bill later on Wednesday.
